Answer to Question 1

False. The quantity of a good demanded depends on many factors including: its own price, consumers' incomes, and the price of related goods.

Answer to Question 2

False. Demand curves slope downward assuming all other factors do not change. Consumers may view brand-name drugs to be of higher quality than store-brand drugs, and therefore the demand curve for brand-name drugs lies to the right of the demand curve for store-brand drugs.
